Our bodies were actually designed so that it is movement that keeps us healthy and free of disease.

Why Movement Heals:
It is the internal movement generated by exercise, stretching, yoga postures, breathing, shiatsu, acupuncture and even meditation, that is vital to the health of the body… it is this movement that exercises the immune system.  It is the continuous movement of body fluids such as lymph, blood and cerebrospinal fluid, that keeps your body clean, your immune system strong and helps you recover from and prevent injury and disease.

This is what makes the body shine,
